| Description of the problem | Wife was driving on freeway when driver side seat frame broke after doing research this has been a known issue for years not sure why it is not a recall yet. I know 2 other people in my family who this has also happened to. I'm happy nothing happen to wife or son. Go to dealership and they want to charge $800 to $1500 to fix i do not agree with this needs to be a recall not sure if they are waiting for someone to die to make it a recall. Info on this matter is all over the web if you own a nissan murano 2003 to 2007 this will happen if it has not already. This seat frame was poorly engineered and nissan needs to take care of. |
